Asa - Fire on the Mountain

[kcoddah]

MAGNIFIQUE-INCONTOURNABLE-MÉLO­DIQUE-ENGAGÉE-

UNE TRÈS GRANDE DÉJÀ...

[23NinjaCupcake]

Asa you are amazin , literally there isnt really a real word to describe your talent , please make more music like this!!!!!!

[vbabygirl85]

Cool video, btw.

[vbabygirl85]

For some strange reason, videos featuring black artists always attract a few racists who rant about people that have NEVER actually done anything to them but exsist. In the words of Mariah Carey, why you so obssessed with them?

[Msbubbleyblue]

lyrical goddess!

[ltenzin92]

Love her and love this song! ;)

[andydavies399]

giggs

[Amirapgold]

Asa, you are simply GOOD!!!

[hypergurl2020]

One of my favorite songs. I love Asa!

[mujiko526]

i have yet to find a song by Asa that's sub-perfect.

[tweetesther]

this is a a great song, congrats Asa, and the video suits it so well. A lifetime favourite.

[89DoraH]

i cant believe this has less than 1 million views. shes a true artist, and is less listened than some other singers who are not... this is quite sad. plus, this song is beautiul.

[LEilllLEi]

I looooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooove this song.

[LayefasWave]

Type on layefa's wave 2years 2late

[thezigzagman87]

Damn. This my fave from Asa.

[waranish]

how come she is not known in the u.s?

[TheNkui]

I love this music video and how they replaced the bullets with butterflies, I think this song is about

how war is pointless I like how this whole band is mainly about peace

[Wolfsrain90]

@TheNkui Asa isn't a band, though....

[lyons403]

what a nice song

[patamola69]

what does she mean when she says "you are fooling with a dead man's corpse"?

[heero171]

@patamola69 When you buy diamonds mined in some African countries (such Sierra Leone, Angola, and the Democratic Republic of Congo) there's a chance the diamond is either a blood diamond (mined to finance local wars that kill thousands of people) or under hazardous conditions that border on slave labor for the miners most of which suffer from health problems, poverty and a lot of times death. So it could be said that yes, the diamonds were delivered via blood, sweat, tears -death-

[kefee15sandra]

@heero171 yeehb you have it ride

[ugoharris00]

@patamola69

Guess, it means your action is futile and useless.

[chalii1984]

The lyrics are so deep. This is talent at its best... I just love what this talented lady is doing.

[besace40]

[devinconcannon122]

Fire on the Mountain is a Grateful Dead song. This is absolute garbage.

[Yazackie]

@devinconcannon122 Like your mother? So sad

[devinconcannon122]

@Yazackie - it seems i left my youtube account open somewhere, i never posted that comment. (likely at work, as i work for a jamband magazine) however... is that really the best insult you could come up with? its not even relevant to what (whoever?) said.

[Yazackie]

@devinconcannon122 Probably not. :D

[goldenfishmurer]

@devinconcannon122 Fire On The Mountain is an Asa song. Grateful Dead is absolute garbage.

[rhcpdave]

@goldenfishmurer Your comment is garbage. How about both are peaceful and great?

[goldenfishmurer]

@rhcpdave aw dont say that youre hurting my feelings dude

[ButtOxe]

If you look closely, the people in the video are not animated. They are real and move slightly. Thumbs up if you noticed this.

[MaRiAtheHeDg3hOg]

The lyrics don't fit with the cheerful tune...but I looove it!

[xTheSmidgex]

try listening to this one overlooking lake malawi at sunset and you think you're in heaven... you know if you don't fully read deeply into the lyrics...

[hellohey000]

this is true and it's happen everywhere

[jesus1saves1hardmanz]

Forgive us African Americans for not recgonizing are talanted black people world wide, but we have a hard time loving ourselves, since over the years are leaders in America gets Assasinated, ostrasized, our encourage to be gang leaders and drug leaders but anyways GOD BLESS YALL AND THIS SONG IS FIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!

[HarperPolo]

[shhhhhhhhh9]

[imasabo]

[Septimanien]

Superbe ! 

[taipan419]

Thumbs up for those who love Talent and not commercial bull s###...

Thumbs up for those who know there is Fire on Aso Rock...

Thumbs for the citizens of this world who get no recognition because there governments are burning their mountains...

[simona891124]

what i just read here made me sad and angry. rascism is a terrible thing. but so is wishing someone's death. everybody has the right to live apart from the terrible things they might think or say.

[poppetxxxxxxx]

those people r really gd @ keeping still - i couldnt do that!!! :P i loove this song + her singing its AMAZING!! <3

[ekkystl]

[xxrebel2uxx]

I want some commenters to leave

[uur8]

I prefer the country version...

[jukristen]

you can't truly appreciate yourself until you appreciate the beauty in others, i feel sad that a lot of people refuse to see this and they waste their precious time hating others, all i pray is that one day they will understand

[PlanetJash]

I love this song!

[annakatew]

This song is beautiful and it reminds me of the movie Hotel Rwanda, which is a verrrryyyy sad movie. and the song Million Voices from that movie is good too.

[meximorro5]

Whats wronqq wit you quyss. Come on enjoy the fkinqq sonq. Goddamn !!!!!!!!!! Who qives a fucck if shes black ? She sinqqs beautiful and even you have to admit thatt shiit !

[MoneySoBomb]

I swear Im not rasict but I swear to God i hate some white people. most of you guys aree red necks &nd hags & you think its cool to call black people niggers ? well guesss what YOU GUYS ARE CRACKERS , RED NECKS , HAGS . you guys change colors &nd what not . do black people ? no . LMFAO ! thats exactly what she's talking about in this song . nobody seems to realize anything now a days . SHAMEFUL smfh.

[burmppootbarpmeep]

@MoneySoBomb shut up you stupid monkey, you have nothing to be proud of, you were our slaves and now you're a bunch of annoying niggers that ruin society, go back to africa

[basketballcards19]

@burmppootbarpmeep I don't know if you're just joking or a giant idiot but if it wasn't for people like you we would have an ideal society. Oh sorry you don't know what ideal means (shouldn't use big words on you). So just go with your KKK friends and kill yourselfs because you obvoiusly don't really know what your talking out of your ass.

[burmppootbarpmeep]

@basketballcards19 ideal? as in i just made a good deal? i don't get it :( you're so smart, how did you get so smart? you must not be black

[laylaseddon]

shut up and stop being rasses !!!

[MoneySoBomb]

lmaoooooo , some of you guys are the most dumbest people I have ever seen in my life &nd I put this on everything i love . this woman is speaking the truth & some of you are that dumb to realize that. hahaha I think it's so funny that Im seeing comments that say "I don't like her because she's black" or "nigger" you guys sound so fucking ignorant . get a life . if you dont like black people &nd have so much hatred for them WHY TF did you waste your time and breath to look this video up ?!

[bj4free101]

amazing how those people can stand so still for a long time lol

[anormalnick]

@burmppootbarpmeep loser...

[matbhm]

@burmppootbarpmeep Lol sorry but you are so funny. It's hilarious to see someone with such backwards views. Really man, you belong in a zoo with the rest of the animals. If you think so called 'Niggers' ruin society, check the hate that you are writing, and you will see that it is this bitterness, from people like you that ruin society. I hope one day you get an education cause you obviously do not know anything at the moment.

[matbhm]

@burmppootbarpmeep By the way YAY FOR OBAMA, twice as dark as George Bush, but yet a million times more intelligent. Red neck backwards whites like you ruin society, not inspirational and tolerant white and black people.One love to my non-racist whites and blacks, you give this world life. Racism is one of the biggest poisons to society.

[punklucianprincess]

@matbhm AMEN!

[anormalnick]

@burmppootbarpmeep I would seriously love your death.. I hope this thing happens cause you are the black death.. you are the scum of this world..What a disgusting human being ..Hope you die as soon as possible..You deserv it , the power of nature will get it..

HOW THE FUCK THIS KIND BLACK SINGER COULD RUIN OUR SOCIETY!!!! FUCK YOUR POOR LIFE..YOU DESERV THE MOST TERRIBLE DEATH SEEN BEFORE..I HOPE YOU DIE

[burmppootbarpmeep]

@anormalnick i love clits

[anormalnick]

@burmppootbarpmeep You will love them in hell..ESCORIA VIVIENTE

[JamaicaSmile09]

@burmppootbarpmeep are you serious?? what an ignorant bastard..i feel sorry for you.

have a nice day

[poppetxxxxxxx]

@burmppootbarpmeep

and which decent people care is she's black or not? she has a wonderful talent and surely you can recognise that? if you just happened to be black, (which is a 50 50 chance) you wouldnt be saying ' oh look i'm a nigger look at me' would you? its not her fault. i bet you can't even sing brilliantly like she does! if you hate black people so much then why did you look this video up? was it just to put horrible stupid comments that only makes you look like an idiot? i <3 asa...

[femmeNIQITA]

OMG--i used to watch her youtube upload of this song years ago before she got signed! Im so happy for her, she's so inspirational!

[burmppootbarpmeep]

i don't like her because she's black

[anormalnick]

@burmppootbarpmeep what a poor coment..

[burmppootbarpmeep]

@anormalnic shutup nigger lover

[anormalnick]

@burmppootbarpmeep what a poor donkey you are..wow..I love your mother..I prefer her insted niggers..SUCK MY WHITE COCK LOSER..die young,,

[perfectmoses]

if u like her music then u will like "Nneka" too

[Mishiejm]

AWESOME song... And the video clip is AWESOME.

[banana000nachos]

We saw this on World Geography! :) when we were talking about africa and nigeria. we played it several times:) this is very good! :)

[jordanisbeastin]

@banana000nachos what school you go to cause same thing at my school

[talentchild]

I love her music! It makes me even more proud of being Nigerian! She decieves a grammy!

[WestindieTweety]

I heard this song on an hbo documentary about africa

[AweInspiringTSH]

@WestindieTweety This is My Africa. Such a great documentary, it's where I first heard this as well. 

[TheLeadCreator]

wow. why have i not heard of her before???

[IDox22]

THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT IS A SINGER ASHA EXCELLENT ADDITION TO SING A RAW turality HASIENDO TRIZTAN AND HUMANITY OF ANYTHING ELSE IS SAD THAT IT'S

[amazeblaze]

I heard this song from a documentary called "This is My Africa".  I'm so glad to have watched that beautiful doc. This is a great song btw. This makes Africa more dignified with beauty, culture, and spirituality, instead of the crap that's it's only a third world civilization.

[ashlielover05]

This is such a great song! I love Asa

[spinoutproduction]

much respect to her. i jst got to learn about her a minute ago through her jailer song and after listen to other productions of hers like fire in he mountain she just blew me away.

[961lilie]

ASA <3

[fabfabius84]

Seems to be a new millennium female bob marley.

[IceInMySnowCone]

@fabfabius84 :) Yuppa

[petelee]

this sounds exactly like Just My Imagination by The Temptations.

[natty0804892381]

@petelee good call, another top tune to add to my playlist - cheers!

[KeAi1997]

jus amazin, i cant stop listening to it

[AmethystMagazine]

This is the kind of talent that today's music should make way for. We do pliés to this song in Dance and I liked it so much I made a note to memorise the lyrics so I could search them up later, haha.

[shakdawit]

This music is so addictive, can't turn it off. Love this daughter's voice. Very talented, respect to the musicians great fit. Please don't change urself i mean your look don't make industry ppl try and change u u r beautiful. i know alot of west african men don't like dark skin women don't bleach your skin u r beautiful. i am a East African man we love women of all shades, stay beautiful and talented.

[titouetvous]

le clip est sublime

[imasseu]

You are awesome!!!!!!!! i love the song and you!!

[hulisanivava]

o.m.g

[JesykahMaree]

This video is beautiful..but what bother me is artists like Lady gaga and beyonce get all the shine for singing bullshit..but Asa has a gift..she should get more shine.

[rob0tsnsk8boards]

@JesykahMaree Whoa, don't go around bashing other artists just because the one you like isn't famous enough, and besides she's from Africa how do you expect her to be bigger than 2 of the most iconic singers in America. doesn't make since. i wonder if they just froze everything by camera or had the extras stay completely still, either way i love this video.

[bonkswa]

@JesykahMaree then give it to her

[x3DaDivax3]

@JesykahMaree I couldn't have put that in better words your 100% right.

[RemiEsther]

@JesykahMaree ....yeh I agree but it has a lot to do with who has the big bucks to promote her & make sure people get to hear her amazing voice.

[hellohey000]

wonderful music!!! who cares where she is from its still a nice song. I saw a HBO documentary called THIS IS MY AFRICA @ 4AM this morning and she & her song was mentioned so i had to look her up, again its a great song

[msafrikan1]

Eye feel this.....& love it!

[Jowwy56]

lovely song!! to everyone who wants to know ASA, she is NIGERIAN!!! BORN IN PARIS, FRANCE...BUT NIGERIAN!!! Voila!!!
